Get the the WTF effect mug.The common act of everything going tits up at once, as seen by increasing the difficulty of Pro Evolution Soccer to anything above 3 atars.
Usual signals of the PES Effect include:
Pschic powers of opponents to read your mind
Telekinetic powers of opponents to make every bounce go their way
Powers of teleportaion so that whenever you do get a lucky break, they are there to steal the ball
The inability of your players to pass
The absolute certainty that when you do get a chance on goal, your centre back who can't hit a barn door is there to take the shot
The internet packing up as you try to write this kind of rant
It usually results in turning the difficulty down to one star and giving the computer a good thrashing "to show it who's boss"; hitting anyone/anything within reach or assaulting anything within throwing distance with a playstation controller
It can also happen in many everyday situations such as during brain surgery, when you drop your scalpel into the patient's head and trip on a bit of brain on the floor at the same time. Then, after you retrieve the scalpel from the cranial cavity...they die; this results in you throwing the scalpel/the patient at any nearby nurses proclaiming "you did your best"

Get the PES Effect mug.The Tumblr Effect occurs when one makes a big deal out of something rather common/formal; A showcase of utter pretentiousness.
Phrases like "I can't even", "This", "I'm so done", "My life is complete" and "That's enough internet for today" indicate that the Tumblr Effect is in effect.
The phenomenon get's it's name from the popular network Tumblr, where people making ginormous deals over little things are in abundance.

Ever since the Tumblr Effect became a thing, it became much easier for marketers to simply make a big deal over their own product, rather than actually presenting the qualities of the product. Henceforth, they would get the (Tumblr Effect) ball rolling.

Get the Tumblr Effect mug.When witnessing a situation of an victim and 'incriminator', the degree of responsibility the witness has in helping the victim or stopping the 'crime' in progress. The degree of responsibility usually depends on three criteria; 1. Whether the victim is deserving of help, 2. The competence of the bystander, 3. The relationship between the bystander and the 'victim'. The bystander can intervene in usually two different ways; direct intervention, or, calling authorities.
I saw an old lady getting her purse taken by some thug, i just stood by and watched... later i felt confused and guilty. The feeling i felt could be described as the bystander effect
